Clean, cosy room. Good heating, comfy bed, tea and coffee supplies and very friendly and helpful receptionists and night staff. I would request a quiet room next time as ours was very noisy- overlooking one of the busiest streets in Cardiff. Also unfortunate that there are noisy, traffic calming measures right outside.
Bed was lovely and comfortable. Great location as 5 minutes walk from the train station. Only downside was shower waa not very powerful and would be nice if TVs were updated to Smart TVs but not a dealbreaker at the price.
Mattress was horrible, we could feel the springs
Tea pot with mould in it

This hotel is in a great local for everything. The owners are so helpful and friendly. It was my daughter’s birthday and they left a bottle of fizz and 6 glasses in her room. We had a perfect stay. It could do with an update but for a few nights stay it’s just perfect. We will definitely be back

The hotel is very run down, clean but tired. very central location. thin walls and not suitable for nayone iwth any mobility issues
Lovely stay here. The staff is terrific and the room had everything I needed. The street traffic can be a bit noisy in the evenings, but I found that it died down by 10:00 to 11:00 PM. My room faced the street, and the view was worth it. Though I did use earplugs at night, my sleep was just fine. Thank you for making my experience in Cardiff so pleasant!

Wonderful stay at the Sandringham. Alison is a most welcoming host and gives top class customer service. My room was clean, comfortable and warm with all necessary facilities. I look forward to staying again.
This property was not well maintained. The room was disgusting- it had black mold and stains on the bedding. We could not stay there and had to find somewhere else to stay.
Very friendly staff. Only downside is no lift and lots of steps but was aware of this before stay and not a problem with me. Deco a bit dated and found strange had to leave room key in hotel. Overall happy with stay and would stay again
I loved my stay here! It's a really cozy place and close to the castle, shopping, and lots of other stuff. The staff is fantastic and friendly, I was always excited to chat with them. It is a very charming place
